[Verse 1]
D She's got a smile that it seems to me C Reminds me of childhood memories G Where everything D Was as fresh as a bright blue sky D Now and then when I see her face C She takes me away to that special place G And if I stared too long D I'd probably break down and cry
[Chorus] Am C D Whoa oh, sweet child o' mine Am C D Whoa, oh, oh, oh sweet love o' mine
[Instrumental] | D | D | C | C | G | G | D | D |
[Verse 2] D She's got eyes of the bluest skies C As if they thought of rain G I'd hate to look into those eyes D And see an ounce of pain D Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place C Where as a child I'd hide G And pray for the thunder and rain D To quietly pass me by
[Chorus] Am C D Whoa oh, oh, sweet child o' mine Am C D Whoa, oh, oh, oh sweet love o' mine
